Annie looked at the pinkish letter with a complicated expression on her face.

It’s been a week since Ejed left, and new letters have been coming in every day.

Dear Annie…

Inside was full of greetings to the Dsev family.

“Is this news from Young Master Jade?”

“Uh, yes.”

“Wow.
The writing is impeccable.
Is this Sir Jade’s writing?”

As Carla approached, Annie folded the letter neatly and put it in the drawer.
She replied calmly, pushing the chair to her desk.

“Uh-huh, well, he says he’s doing well.
He asked to say hello to Carla too.”

“Oh my.
Is he taking care of me too?”

It’s been a week since Ejed left.

The people in her mansion, including Carla, were very sad.

“It’s a bit empty without that kind and cute person.”

Even though it hasn’t been for a few days, Ejed has won the hearts of people.

What was surprising was that he made a good impression on her parents and David.

[ What? Are you going already? We were going to have a barbecue party together, but when will you come again? ]

[Hmm, sorry.
]

[Come whenever you want.

Everyone was skeptical and worried about Robbie’s appearance, but Annie said it wasn’t a big deal.

He said he was trying to take care of Robbie.

“Reply to him to and tell him come back next time.”

“Okay.”

Annie, who answered softly, turned her head and looked out of the window.
The weather was just as good as when they went to a sheep ranch a while ago.

But Annie’s mood was not very clear.

Ejed’s stiff expression was vivid as he looked out the window of the carriage.

He was no longer embarrassed or stuttered even when she asked about him—such an innocent person to have such an expression.

‘It’s the first time I’ve seen such an angry face except when I was rescued from Lord Girkan… Has something bad happened….?’

“My Lady?”

“… Uh?”

“What are you thinking? You couldn’t hear me even when I called you.
Do you have any concerns?”

“No.
Nothing.”

Annie, who had lost her thoughts, coughed and waved her hand.
No matter how close she was to writing the Porcaus travel book, she had no time to rest.
When she finished her personal work, she had to help with the family.

She held a feather pen on her desk, trying to focus on her work.
Carla, who was staring at her master, said cautiously.

“My Lady, we have a guest.”

Where did her mind go? Annie lifted her body with a bewildered face.

No matter how David was chosen as the heir to the family, the guests were often looking for Annie.

Most of it was time to seek business proposals, collaborations, and advice.

Annie, who had roughly guessed that it was one of them today, asked.

“Are the guests in the parlor?”

“Yes.
By the way, that… someone a bit unusual has come.”

“Who?”

“Go and see for yourself.
It… It’s also the one who came to see you a while ago.”

Carla, conscious of the maids in the hallway, said cautiously.

‘Did Brother tell you to keep quiet?’

She was puzzled.
Who is it that makes Carla react like this? Still, if it’s someone she met recently, she shouldn’t have any problem.

‘I’ll listen to them and then send them off.’

However, the moment she faced the guest, the light thoughts were shattered.

“Hello, Miss Annie Mill Dsev.
May Goddess’ blessings be full.”

“…”

“Your legs must have hurt.
Come on, sit down.”

The sight of the mysterious hair gliding like wavy waves was truly unrealistic.
The man sitting like a painting on the soft leather sofa was a messenger from the gods.

As he lifted his chin, Annie cautiously sat down opposite him.

“I’m sorry for coming suddenly.
The Goddess has given me an oracle to save you from the Emperor, so I’m here in a hurry.”

“…Goddess?”

Ominous unspoken words flowed from his mouth.
No matter how much business mattered, they say that they will be harmed if they are together with the Emperor.

“Why are you telling me like this?”

It wasn’t a pleasant story, so Annie’s eyebrows furrowed.
It was absurd.
Of course, she was religious as a Porcausian, but to cast such misfortune with one oracle.

Annie didn’t agree with his opinion at all.
She just sat still and pursed her lips.

In a strange atmosphere, Robbie suddenly spoke in a severe voice.

“Miss Dsev.
You know what? Actually, Jade is the Emperor.”

“…Why are you talking to me like this?”

Robbie paused, a bit perplexed as Annie seemed to know that Jade was Ejed.

But it didn’t last long.
He spoke boldly.

“I told you.
The Goddess gave the oracle.”

Annie’s eyes darkened.
Believers said he received as many as dozens or more oracles per day.

But since early morning, she only came to deliver the oracle, ‘Keep away from the Emperor.’

“I know His Majesty finds you amusing, but I’m afraid this will hurt you in many ways.”

“…”

“You should rather stay away from His Majesty.”

Although it was rude even though he was close to the Emperor, Annie could not refute it.
The man in front of her now was the messenger who the people of the empire have praised since the time of the predecessor Emperor.

Annie was very frustrated.

“His Majesty is a ruthless and vicious man as rumored to be.
With a Lady as weak as you…”

“Thanks for the advice, Lord Robbie.”

Robbie’s expression brightened strangely as Annie cut off his words.
It was as if she had just figured it out.

Annie smiled brightly at this.

“I understand the words.
I will take care of myself in the future.”

Except for those who were as ignorant as Fizz, they would have known.

The nuance of ‘I’ll take care of myself, so stay out…’

Annie completely nailed it.

“Lord Robbie, you must be busy with the temple, so why don’t you just go?”

Do you have time here right now? Do your job well.
It seemed that such subtle words were hidden.

Robbie raised his silver eyebrows.

“How do you know you’re good at taking care of yourself?”

“I don’t.”

Annie, in an unusual attitude, clenched her fists on her lap.
Yes, it’s unusual to spit this out.

But she just couldn’t shake her pretense just by looking at him stupidly.
